El émulo de Cristina

Guy Sorman explica por qué Sarkozy se desploma en las encuestas:

His private life isn't the problem. His much publicized divorce, followed by a third marriage to a former model turned singer, shocked the oldest and the most conservative voters. But the new Madame Sarkozy has become as discreet as she is elegant.

Rather, the problem is the disconnect between Mr. Sarkozy's rhetoric and his actions. What his first year in office teaches us – America's presidential candidates take note – is that the way to become the most unpopular of presidents is to take all sides on every issue. By talking like a reformer, Mr. Sarkozy has displeased the partisans of the status quo, and by failing to undertake the reforms he proclaims, he's also disappointed the partisans of change.

  1. Luis, ¿Y cómo sigue el curso de las reformas en Francia? Pregunto por curiosidad, nada más.

  2. Andrés, yo lo dije desde un principio. El status quo en Francia es muy complicado. La resistencia al cambio es fenomenal.
